7 is one of my favorite meters. This month's mix is a collection of sevens at a range of different tempos. The first track was made for my good friend Bethany Formica. She used the "Track Request" feature and asked for a track in 7, between 150-160 BPM using piano, modular synth, voice and a software instrument.
Mixes
Mix 1
9 tracks
Most online modern classes are around 60 minutes long...so this is the first playlist for just about that amount.
Mix 2
9 Tracks
Mix 2 is a collection of nine tracks by soundFORMovement that make a fantastic arc of ambient, rhythmic and soulful music in a range of tempos and meter. This mix was made to accompany a 60 minute online modern dance class.
Mix 3
10 Tracks
Mix 3 is a wonderful arc of open environments, tracks in 3,4 and 7/4 and some driving tracks for a final phrase.
Mix 6 - Voice
10 Tracks
Voice is a collection of 10 tracks with at least one layer of me singing. The first and last track are two different recordings of one of my favorite pieces made 15 years apart...so much change and so much the same in my Voice.
